Topic: New non-native

Hi,

The Environmental Records Centre for Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly (ERCCIS) runs several projects looking at non-native species so the new additions to the dictionary are really helpful - thanks!

An additional non-native has been discovered as part of our Marine Science Project so please could you add the following red alga species:
Chrysymenia wrightii (Harvey) Yamada

Found this year in Cornwall and verified by Francis Bunker.

Many thanks,
Tamara

Many thanks for this - and for the compass sea squirt too!
